Abstract
Remote Sensing of Geologic Structures in Highly Vegetated Areas: Digital Mapping in the Potato Hills, Southeastern Oklahoma
ABSTRACT
The use of remote sensing in highly vegetated areas for geologic mapping is a tool that geologists can use to save money and time. Remote sensing has been used in arid regions like the southwestern United States for decades. Recent advances now allow the techniques to be applied to densely vegetated regions of the country, and satellite images are more accurate and less expensive to purchase. Computers and software are more powerful and easier to use. These developments will lead to faster production and more accurate geologic maps.
The Potato Hills, in southeastern Oklahoma, are a region of dense vegetation and structural complexity. The Potato Hills, therefore, constitute a good case example for which to show these techniques.
